 The analysis is repeated for Re=5,000. Result of the path
lines is shown below. Flow circulation now appear near the
upper left corner in addition to the lower two corners of the
cavity.

11.3.2 Flow past Cylinder in Channel

We will use Fluent in ANSYS to analyze the flow past
a cylinder in a channel. The fluid properties, flow domain geome-
try and boundary conditions are shown in the figure.
